ChemInform Abstract: Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Apocynaceae Hydrocarbazole Alkaloids (+)‐Deethylibophyllidine and (+)‐Limaspermidine. Issue 37 (September 2015) - Du, Ji‐Yuan
Abstract An unprecedented asymmetric tandem aminolysis/aza‐Michael addition reaction of spirocyclic para‐dienoneimides [e.g. (I)] with the formation of the chiral quaternary center in the densely functionalized hydrocarbazole synthons [e.g. (III)] is studied.
